The North Kansas City School District recognizes the benefits of travel in foreign countries to both
teacher and student. Accordingly, the following procedure for granting leave for travel is adopted:
► A written proposal containing objectives, activities, proposed travel dates and all other
pertinent support materials must be submitted to the Assistant Superintendent of Educational
Services at least 120 days in advance of the proposed trip. The trip must be arranged through
an established travel organization acceptable to the school district. All arrangements must
be completed between the teacher and the district and approval must be received in writing
by the teacher before any contact with students may be made.
► Grades of students in all classes will be satisfactory before permission to travel is granted.
► All costs for foreign travel will be borne by the students and teachers involved except as
follows:
The teacher is eligible to apply for a grant to support special curriculum development efforts
resulting from the travel experience.
